Fifty Year Flood + Band in Candler, NC

ABOUT

We're a husband and wife, guitarist/vocalist duo, plus drummer, bassist, and second guitarist. We've been playing together for four years, and have a strong catalog of original songs as well as an extensive list of uncommon covers.

My wife has a terrific, unique voice, and I play guitar, sing, and play a little mandolin. We've been gigging around Asheville on and off for four years, and spend much of our practice time developing our original music, which tends to be in the neo-roots/indie/psychedelic rock vein, with dashes of punk and alt-country thrown in for good measure. We've got somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 to 20 originals in various states of completion, but most are complete songs. We're writing new material all the time, plus we've got a slew of covers in the vaults as well.

We rehearse at our house, and our rehearsal room doubles as a recording studio, which works out really well.
